We shared so many good and wonderful times together. It is hard to believe that our circle of 10 is changed forever. His spirit will always be with us. We have to thank God for our friendship and have faith that He is good and just and though I am deeply saddened at the same time I am truly at peace in knowing that one of my dearest friends is in heaven with our Lord. I love you both. Nell I'm here for you anytime for anything. Canasta will never be the same. Love Stefie - Posted by: Stefie Hrabarchuk (Friend) on: Jan 10, 2005
